What is the maximum property damage amount requiring FAA notification?

The requirement for FAA notification regarding property damage is set at $25,000. This threshold is significant because it reflects the FAA's interest in being informed about incidents that could indicate safety issues or trends affecting aviation. When property damage from an accident exceeds this amount, it suggests a serious situation that the FAA should be aware of for regulatory, safety, and investigative purposes. This amount is specifically outlined in the FAA regulations to ensure that all relevant incidents are reported and can be addressed appropriately to maintain the safety and integrity of the aviation industry.
